Abstract The driver-automation shared driving is a transition to fully-autonomous driving, in which human driver and vehicular controller cooperatively share the control authority. This paper investigates the shared stee...

The motion planning is a critical component of autonomous navigation, requiring the vehicle to reach a target location safely. Traditional navigation approaches for four-wheel differential drive automated guided vehicles...

Underwater vehicles operating in close proximity suffer from significant hydrodynamic interactions, especially when there is a prominent vehicle size disparity. To gain profound insights into the physical mechanisms of i...

The transport industry has recently shown significant interest in unmanned surface vehicles (USVs), specifically for port and inland waterway transport. These systems can improve operational efficiency and safety, which ...

The environmental performance of vehicle electrification depends critically on the extent to which electric vehicles (EV) actually replace conventional vehicles (CV). Comparative life cycle assessment (LCA) studies typic...

Abstract The electrification of vehicle helps to improve its operation efficiency and safety. Due to fast development of network, sensors, as well as computing technology, it becomes realizable to have vehicles driving a...

Human driven vehicles (HDVs) with selfish objectives cause low traffic efficiency in an un-signalized intersection. On the other hand, autonomous vehicles can overcome this inefficiency through perfect coordination. In t...

Abstract Autonomous vehicles require safe motion planning in uncertain environments, which are largely caused by surrounding vehicles. In this paper, a driving environment uncertainty-aware motion planning framework is p...

Electric vehicles are currently the leading solution in the automotive market to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. However, transitioning from traditional internal combustion engines poses many challenges. One of these ch...

The global shift towards sustainable transportation has significantly increased the adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) and their supporting charging infrastructure. While these technologies reduce greenhouse gas emissio...

Vehicular communication applications are expanding quickly because of the approach of related technologies, such as vehicular cloud and the Internet of Vehicles (IoV). The combination of the Internet of Things (IoT) and ...

Fuel Cell Recreational Vehicles (FCRVs) are emerging as a promising sustainable alternative to conventional diesel- and gasoline-powered recreational vehicles. This paper evaluates the financial and technological aspects...

Autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) operating in harsh, communication-limited underwater environments require robust fault diagnosis systems to ensure mission success and safety. Existing model-based approaches suffer ...

In a mixed traffic environment consisting of connected autonomous vehicles (CAVs) and human-driven vehicles (HVs), platooning intensity serves as a critical metric, quantifying the strength of CAV clustering, with inhere...

Abstract The four-track walking mining vehicle can better cope with the complex terrain of cobalt-rich crusts on the seabed. To explore the influence of different parameters on the obstacle-crossing ability of mining veh...

With ever increasing concern on energy diversification, energy efficiency and environmental protection, electric vehicles (EVs) including the pure EV (PEV), hybrid EV (HEV) and fuel-cell EV (FEV) are becoming attractive ...

Recent studies and industry developments indicate that modular autonomous vehicles (MAVs) have the potential to enhance transportation systems by offering vehicles with adjustable capacities en route. However, the practi...

Abstract Regarding the lane keeping system, path tracking accuracy and lateral stability at high speeds need to be taken into account especially for commercial vehicles due to the characteristics of larger mass, longer w...

The Level 3 autonomous vehicle (AV) is now a reality on the public roads. While the emergence of AV is to eliminate the traffic crashes due to human error by 90%, the unexpected or errant drivings on the roads would, how...

In response to the limitations of traditional planning methods for Autonomous Surface Vehicles (ASVs), which heavily rely on predefined map representations and neglect kinematic feasibility, this paper proposes a novel k...

Abstract Solar-powered electric-vehicle (EV) charging in tropical, PV-rich regions such as Uganda faces coupled stressors from high ambient temperature and intermittent solar irradiance, which can destabilize conventiona...
